I am asking this for a friend. OK here is the deal. They have joint custody but mother has primary residential. She smokes pot in front of the kids along with more drugs and alcohol. Sometimes she is nice enough to send the kids to their room or outside but they can't be hidden from it 24/7. The children are 11&13. There is another son age 14 but due to his and his mother's adhd and bi polar, the father now has sole custody of him. ok basically the courts are aware of all of this but what they are not aware of is that for a year and a half now the father has been getting the children with head lice EVERY time they come over to stay. He has told the mother and she gets mad and blames EVERYONE but herself. He has paid for all of the medicine until he found out about a month ago that it was covered through his insurance. THANKS GOD! Still yet when he finds the lice (because mother won't continue checking their head or treating them) she will claim she does not even have the gas money to go get the medicine. She CLAIMS to clean their head but STILL they have lice! He only gets these children every other weekend so therefor he does not wish to keep spending the entire time cleaning heads and bedding! He feels bad because the girls are litterally scared of there mom doing their hair because she gets mad and hurts (Pulls hair and smacks them if they whine or move their head) the girls while cleaning their head.
IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS MESS?!?!?!?!?
